DD Summit 2025 Session: Redefining Dietetics: Continuing to Advance Equity and Strengthen Our Communities
A few years ago, diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) were at the forefront of conversations in the nutrition and dietetics field. Today, efforts to dismantle DEI and health equity are gaining momentum, causing many to ask: Where do we go from here?
Join our co founders Tamara Melton, MS, RDN, LD, and Deanna Belleny Lewis, MPH, RDN, as they lead a panel of dietitians who have been committed to this work long before 2020. This closing panel session will highlight real-life examples from a range of specialties—including academia, clinical practice, entrepreneurship, and culinary nutrition—demonstrating how DEI can continue to thrive and evolve in the face of challenges.
The panel will explore practical strategies for advancing equity within these diverse areas, offering insights on how to build strength through community and stay committed to the work that is needed now more than ever. After the discussion, we’ll offer time for small group connection, allowing attendees to engage in meaningful conversations and collaborate on actionable ways to move forward together. If you’re passionate about advancing diversity and inclusion in our field, come ready to connect, share, and learn how we can continue to move forward together.
